Fitness Swellness: Spinout Cycle

Spinout Cycle

I pulled on some Lycra and tried out the new Spinout Cycle in Liberty Village a couple of weeks ago (well, not a full class, just a 30-minute quickie session!). You can read more about this studio’s concept over at Vitamin Daily (I’ve just started contributing to them!). The classes will appeal to those of you who have a mean competitive streak!

Fitness Swellness: Yoga for better brain function

upward dog

Yoga, more so than aerobic workouts, will improve your brain function says a new study published in the Journal of Physical Activity & Health.

The study participants were assessed at baseline, after a treadmill workout and after 20 minutes of hatha yoga. Post-run and baseline cognitive assessments didn’t differ much, however, after yoga, the subjects’ cognitive abilities improved. The researchers speculate the calming and self-awareness of a yoga practice may translate positively to your regular life activities.

So, who’s in for Om T.O. and the Lole White Session next week?

Style Swellness: A new cardio workout

Wildfox Shopping is My Cardio t-shirt Asos

After I run my marathon in May (my third in about 18 months — that’s essentially constant training for a year and a half, yo), I may relax it on the running.

And I think I’ve found my new sport :)
